GlueViz

GlueViz Overview

It provides a graphical means of exploring relationships within large datasets. It works best for data that is stored in a spreadsheet or table rather than 3D simulation data.

GlueViz enables you to:

• Explore data via statistical graphics such as scatter plots, histograms and images.
• Linkage between graphics allows subsets selected in one view to be propagated to the others.
• Python scripting: additional features can be added using Python, without having to learn too much programming.

This is the pilot version of a general hands-on course that introduces some of the basic visualization techniques before some more advanced Python techniques. It covers:

• Overview of user interface, drag and drop, subsets.
• How to load data, visualize, define subsets, and save subsets; input & output file formats.
• How to use the built-in visualisation tools: histogram .... table
• Generate multiple related views to present data subsets, unions intersections etc.
• Comparing and merging multiple data sets
• Interactive programming via GluViz's interactive IPython terminal
• Export Python code for generating plots.
• Develop your own visualisation tools in Python.
• Q&A on issues around your own data.

Prerequisites:

Experience with Python programming would help for the later parts of the course, but in not essential.

Software Required:

• Anacond3 with GlueViz and Spyder installed.
• MS Excel
• Notepad++
